LegionZero wrote: How do you not dispute Trish's super strength yet believe that Trish was somehow not holding back against Lady in a fist fight? Her attitude and usage of lighting based attacks on Lady. Also wording like... "You bitch" and trying to beat her to pulp when she was on the ground in the act of rage.

LegionZero wrote: Trisd did hurt Dante in melee combat. She knocked him across the room, pinned him dowm with his own swod, then she hurt him some more with lightning. Once again Legion, you're not making any sense in your sentences. Before you've said that "Superhuman characters cannot hurt Dante " yet Trish is a Superhuman character. Made up your mind or get some sleep. Maybe both.

LegionZero wrote: We were talking about her melee beatdown of Dante and how she punched and kicked him, knocking him across the room. Then you brought applied my statements to non-melee situations, so yes that was very much out of context. Pushing someone across the room is not indication of hurting them in DMC universe. Especially since they were paralysed by thunder and couldnt move at all. Look at Beowulf (before loosing eye) punching DMC3 Dante into the ground with even bigger impact than Trish. It literally did nothing to him and Dante shrugged it off. Here's the same thing. Trish did not damaged him in any way with her punches, she caught him of guard and landed a few blows on him when he was paralysed. She paralysed him by grabbing force edge and sending electric wave. He was stunned for few seconds. Even you or me, could punch Dante that is not moving due to paralysis and throw him to the ground. That wouldnt mean that we're strong. Just that we can beat up a paralysed by thunder man. If you want an example in which Dante was affected by blows of his opponent in DMC 1, then watch first Nelo Angelo fight. His punches visibly damaged and stunned him, without whole "sneak attack and thunder shock".

LegionZero wrote: She could with lightning. She actually does something similar in the anime. She also heals from gun wounds. Towards slower demons/humans. Nothing indicates that she would be able to do it against Dante, if anything, it's the opposite. She only managed to hurt him due to sneak attack. Yet she missed it so many times with lady.

She can heal. Yes. She have super strenght. Yes. She can use lighting yes. No one is denying her abilities, and even with them.. It's heavily implied in previously mentioned sources and even in non-canon sources... "Like pachinko games, crossovers, etc.) that both Trish and Lady are equal in strenght. Even if you belive that Trish was stronger, everything seems to retcon it.

LegionZero wrote: She hadnt revealed that she looked like Eva until after she turned her back to Dante and his gun. Sure, but by slowly standing up from the floor, she tried to calm him down by saying that she's not his enemy. Then she revealed that she looks like his mother. Same thing, ensuring that he wont shoot her.

LegionZero wrote: Trish survived Mundus' death beam. A few bullets wont hurt her. Yes she survived a death beam from Mundus, but a few bullets still will be able to hurt her. She'll regenerate but it will hurt her. She'll eventually run out of stamina and will die. Hell Lady managed to hurt her a lot in their fight. She regenerated but Lady wounded her and weakened her to the point where she was **heavy-breathing**.

The two of them fighting would eventually kill her but a few shots would not. Speculation. Nothing indicates that she would be able to survive few shots.

As for the headshot, the "mark" was the blood that spurted out from the initial wound, which closed instantly like all his other wound. Dante wipes that blood on the wall in the same scene. Red screen when he got shot is a strong implication that he got hurt.

Trish was never trying to kill Lady. Trish doesnt kill humans, at least not humans who arent evil. Lady, being a Devil Hunter, inherently means Trish isnt trying to kill her. We dont have any single info about Trish not killing humans tbh. That's speculation at best.

It was a question about the novel because that was not what happened in the story to my understanding. It has nothing to do with Trish feats. Dante (and Phantom/Griffon/Frost from alternate dimension) were fighting a lot of Trishes (wielding Alastor like weapon) that were created by Mundus from alternate dimension.. and they were mostly one shooting them. There's not a single indication that Trish made by alternate Mundus was weaker. That's the fact.

Speculation Nothing indicates that she's weaker than original timeline Trish. And that's also the fact.
